This guide is informed by the field of behaviour based safety, which is often described as a frontline approach with top-down support from safety leaders. A behaviour-based safety approach promotes interventions that are people-focused and often incorporate one-to-one or group observations of employees performing routine work tasks, setting goals carefully and giving timely feedback on safety-related behaviour, coaching and mentoring. The initiatives have a proactive focus, encouraging individuals and their work groups to consider the potential for incident involvement and to assess their own behaviour as safe or unsafe always, no matter what.
